    Gas Guzzlers

    It funny to watch in the wintertime...All the yuppy urban 4x4's here seem to take themselves out in crashes, since they don't know how to drive them properly! They get them for the "Bad" winters (which aren't that bad) and end up just driving further into the ditches, foot to the floor thinking...

    knife amnesty

    I wonder if by having an amnesty, it gives some people a chance to unload unwanted knives from their boxes hidden in the back closet.

    What to see in Vancouver

    You can rent equipment from various places. It'll save you carting all that stuff over here. Here's a good place to start: Linky MEC have a store in Vancouver and one in North Vancouver. In Calgary, our University also rents outdoor equipment, so I'd imagine the Uni out on the coast may...

    Attitudes Concerning Rescue

    Maybe we as rescuers are enabling these people. Perhaps it's time to cull the herd a bit and get rid of some muppets! ;) Seriously though, if I was to feel like I was doing anything to put my life in jeopardy, I would re-look at my strategy in a rescue situation. I also don't have to contend...
